Once I get to the mission the NPC is dead, burning is not working either. (
)Hello all!
I've merged together a few threads regarding this mystery together into a single thread. I apologise if this has disrupted any ongoing conversations.
I can let you know that the development team are aware of this issue, and that they're currently investigating further. I've passed on the reports that have been shared already within this thread. Thanks for taking the time to share your experiences of this issue.
If you have been affected by this, please can you let us know what steps you tried during and after the mystery? For instance, did you leave the area during the mystery, or fast travel away? I know there is a chest nearby in the house - did you loot this prior to completing the mystery?
Additionally, if you can provide a video that shows you've killed the NPC but the mystery is not showing as completed, please can you share these within the thread? We can then pass these along to the development team for a closer look.
Thanks all!

Thanks for answering!
Regarding what you said let me tell you what I`ve did on both PS4 and PS5 and nothing :
Please tell the DEV Team how frustrated is the people and not just the ones they started the game, but the ones who made more 150H to finish every mission for platinum and what happens? they cannot because the game is unfinished, so what should we do? a refund of the game?
This is since November and we almost in March , 4 months and the same bug not repaired..
Really this should be checked with them and to provide a status of the issue.
Very frustrating situation guys...

Thanks for the video, I was planning to do it last night, have you done my steps?
I even tried yesterday uninstalling the game ( keep the cloud save obviously ) and installed it back then I`ve checked the mission but NPC still dead.
I have already more than 150H done all completed but this mission is stuck and I cannot complete 100% of the game!
For other glitches that I found in the game, the last methods worked but not for this one.

Could you ask them? or is there any other thing that we could try?
Thanks

Hello. To add to what has already been said - I am experiencing exactly what is happening within the video posted by the other member. I can confirm for you that this is my final mystery and I have completed the main storyline - not sure if that makes any difference to this.
I do not recall fast travelling away during the mystery; I solved it all in one go but it just did not mark as complete. I do remember killing the NPC while he was still confessing however; possibly something went wrong here?
Any updates on this would be greatly appreciated as I would like to get the last achievement.
Hello there!

Maybe you have a chance with DevTeam for a hotfix on this issue that is already since November (5 months already) and lot of people is facing this issue on Youtube, Reddit, Ubisoft forums , Twitter etc
For sure there can be a speed-up this one or provide more light on any quick date. ( maybe a respawn of the NPC every 1h would be a quick solution)
Much appreciate it.

No news guys? How come the hot fix for the raids just been updated în the game already ( when the raids have been developed 2 week ago) but the mission with the NPC glitch is since 5 months ago reported to Dev team..
What is going on here?
Do we have to escalte this în a other way?
Because no one is doing anything or any progress related to this..

If the issue still persists for you following the deployment of TU 1.2.0, please can you provide us with a video that shows the following:
Thanks all!
I had the same problem. I used the two oil jars, threw them at the cart, but then nothing. The guy just stood there and wouldn't talk. But I eventually walked a few feet away, towards the road, when he said something about not being able to bear the guilt and before I could even get back to him he used the fire on the cart to set himself ablaze. He collapsed dead and the mystery was concluded. This wasn't bugged for me I just couldn't figure out the right action without getting help, so maybe try this if you're having trouble.
